net: use skb_sec_path helper in more places

skb_sec_path gains 'const' qualifier to avoid
xt_policy.c: 'skb_sec_path' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type

same reasoning as previous conversions: Won't need to touch these
spots anymore when skb->sp is removed.

netfilter: x_tables: use pr ratelimiting in matches/targets

all of these print simple error message - use single pr_ratelimit call.
checkpatch complains about lines > 80 but this would require splitting
several "literals" over multiple lines which is worse.

# b6ca8bd5 28-Nov-2017 David Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

xfrm: Move child route linkage into xfrm_dst.

XFRM bundle child chains look like this:

xdst1 --> xdst2 --> xdst3 --> path_dst

All of xdstN are xfrm_dst objects and xdst->u.dst.xfrm is non-NULL.
The final child pointer in the chain, here called 'path_dst', is some
other kind of route such as an ipv4 or ipv6 one.

The xfrm output path pops routes, one at a time, via the child
pointer, until we hit one which has a dst->xfrm pointer which
is NULL.

We can easily preserve the above mechanisms with child sitting
only in the xfrm_dst structure. All children in the chain
before we break out of the xfrm_output() loop have dst->xfrm
non-NULL and are therefore xfrm_dst objects.

Since we break out of the loop when we find dst->xfrm NULL, we
will not try to dereference 'dst' as if it were an xfrm_dst.

netfilter: x_tables: move hook state into xt_action_param structure

Place pointer to hook state in xt_action_param structure instead of
copying the fields that we need. After this change xt_action_param fits
into one cacheline.

This patch also adds a set of new wrapper functions to fetch relevant
hook state structure fields.

# 62fc8051 07-Jul-2009 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

netfilter: xtables: deconstify struct xt_action_param for matches

In future, layer-3 matches will be an xt module of their own, and
need to set the fragoff and thoff fields. Adding more pointers would
needlessy increase memory requirements (esp. so for 64-bit, where
pointers are wider).

netfilter: xtables: change xt_match.checkentry return type

Restore function signatures from bool to int so that we can report
memory allocation failures or similar using -ENOMEM rather than
always having to pass -EINVAL back.

This semantic patch may not be too precise (checking for functions
that use xt_mtchk_param rather than functions referenced by
xt_match.checkentry), but reviewed, it produced the intended result.

# f7108a20 08-Oct-2008 Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

netfilter: xtables: move extension arguments into compound structure (1/6)

The function signatures for Xtables extensions have grown over time.
It involves a lot of typing/replication, and also a bit of stack space
even if they are not used. Realize an NFWS2008 idea and pack them into
structs. The skb remains outside of the struct so gcc can continue to
apply its optimizations.

This patch does this for match extensions' match functions.

A few ambiguities have also been addressed. The "offset" parameter for
example has been renamed to "fragoff" (there are so many different
offsets already) and "protoff" to "thoff" (there is more than just one
protocol here, so clarify).
